The AP (via USA Today) reports:

The stigma associated with taking classes over the Internet can be a nagging concern for those about to invest serious time and money to advance their careers.

Such fears may be fueled by recently released federal data that suggests graduates of for-profit schools aren’t finding as much success in the job market. These schools, which are known for their online career education programs, had lower repayment rates for student loans, according to data released last month.
